Hi, folks --

Someone recently sent me an e-mail with an attachment in Word for
Windows v.6x format.  When I tried to open it in WordPerfect 5.1 for
DOS, I got an error message on the conversion, to the effect that I am
missing a conversion driver called "CVDWW6X.CVX".  I have searched the
Corel FTP site, spoken with Corel Customer Service hoping to buy the
darn thing (to no avail), looked all over the `Net with every imaginable
search engine, and have come up empty-handed.

If you have WordPerfect on your computer (DOS or Windows) and can locate
a file called CVDWW6X.CVX in the root WP directory, would you please
forward a copy to mpa@sprynet.com -- I'd really appreciate it.

  That came with an upgrade called WordPerfect 5.1+.  Does Corel sell that?
You might ask.

   Um, well ... it IS copyrighted software.
